My first post!

I've never shared my knitting or ideas online before. I'm excited! 

I love yarn and I love knitting.  I have a short attention span with projects and I often need to work on 2 or 3 projects at a time.  Right now I'm knitting my step mother a simple lace scarf using Alchemy's Haiku.  It's silk mohair and very beautiful.  I'm also working on a throw made of random cotton that I had floating around.  I tie-dyed some of the yarn a few years ago and I figure I'll do thick, graphic strips of seed stitch panels and sew them together in the end.  I feel very inspired by Louise Bourgeois's quilts.  Graphic and simple and well composed.

I've also just finished a baby blanket for my cousin's soon to arrive little one.  It's very simple and relies on a strong color palette.
